How to encourage (& not kill) the joy in learning for our kids

Sep 4th, 2008 by amy

Cultivating the unschooling mindset. Don’t let the unschooling title scare you, there are great things to think about here.  Maybe this is my own issue, but I can so relate to the description of “learning” just enough to get an “A” on the test and to enjoy the (fleeting) accolades which follow, all the while disliking school and longing to be out.  It goes without saying that I really learned nothing except to look to others and the grades on my report card to make me feel good about me.  Hopefully my children will be spared from the same fate.
